GOLQ Mailing List <list@golq.org>: Feb 06 11:58PM -0800 RESULTS & ANSWER KEY for Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #360 (GOLQ360) Congratulations to Delphi Trivia Club, The EJ'S & Co., and Village Idiots, who finished in a 3-way tie for first with perfect scores. Just behind, missing only the tiebreakers, was Will McCorry. DEC & Friends also excelled, missing only the artist for one song. I try to pay tribute to GOLQ artists upon their passing, but we fans are also subject to time taking its toll. Team Asia has participated in the GOLQ series on-and-off for the last 20 years; team member Mitch Herczeg informed me with his entry that his quiz partner, Barry Chamish, passed away in August 2016. See Barry's Wikipedia page for more info on his interesting life. Each song has one or more audio links (quality and permanence not guaranteed). As always, thanks to everyone who entered! The February 2017 quiz (GOLQ #361) will be posted soon. -- Howard Teitelbaum _____________________________________________________________________________ After each score below are two characters representing the two tie-breakers: + indicates a tie-breaker answered correctly. - indicates partial credit. x indicates a totally incorrect guess. . indicates no guess.

"peak R&B" = Peak position on the weekly Billboard Rhythm & Blues chart. (Billboard didn't publish an R&B chart between 11/30/63 and 1/23/65, so recordings in that interval show peak R&B of {n/c} ("no chart").) "xxx",...,"yyy" = prior GOLQ(s) in which the song appeared, if any. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Should've seen her eyes when the band began to play And the famous singers sang and bowed away When the star performed she screamed and yelled "hooray" #01) Berry, Chuck: "Sweet Little Rock And Roll" (1958/59) [47] {13} <83> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xv9TMSzmMXo On his 90th birthday (10/26/16), he announced that his first new studio album since 1979, entitled "Chuck," will be released sometime in 2017.

Written by Tony Hatch, under the pseudonym "Fred Nightingale." But I tell you, he really knocked me dead So I don't quite remember exactly what he said I just stood there and I shook my head #03) Dixie Cups, The: "You Should Have Seen The Way He Looked At Me" (1964) [39] {n/c} <67> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihApICRZSa8 One of the trio, Joan Marie Johnson, died 10/3/16 at 72.

Sweeter than wine Softer than the summer night Everything I want, I have Whenever I hold you tight #04) Drifters, The: "This Magic Moment" (1960) [16] {4} <131> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVY1k0-YWFs Written by Doc Pomus & Mort Shuman. Oh love, oh love, oh love (oh love) Why you wanna go away and leave me here to cry? When you knew that I would miss you But oh baby, if you please, please come back to me I apologize if I ever made you cry #05) Everett, Betty: "There'll Come A Time" (1969) [26] {2} <67> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXGTQQRoiB4 He's light and fragile, and feathered sky blue So thin and graceful, the sun shines through #06) Faithfull, Marianne: "This Little Bird" (1965) [32] {-} <175> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gj6tiBN0Aso (Loudermilk, 1962) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7NezlyoNVY (Faithfull, 1965) Written & first recorded by John D.

He is credited as arranger on this recording, and also played xylophone. Well, I'm too old for girls and I'm too young for women I've looked all around, and my hopes are a-dimmin' I feel like a fish not allowed any swimmin' #10) Ives, Burl: "Call Me Mr. In-Between" (1962) [19] {-} <244> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1Fv2Jgm-fg I thought I'd grow up gracefully I'd understand my woman thoroughly But the more I see (but the more I see) The more I see there is to see, there is to see #11) Lovin' Spoonful, The: "She Is Still A Mystery" (1967) [27] {-} <50><101> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULpeLq3FKWk One night with you is like heaven And so, while I'm walkin' the floor I listen for steps in the hallway And wait for your knock on my door #12) Lowe, Jim: "Four Walls" (1957) [15] {-} <-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBMbfXGVmds Jim Lowe died 12/12/16 at 93, after a long career as both musician and DJ. The song was also a Top-20 hit at the same time for Jim Reeves. DEC & Friends mentioned a version by Ronnie Milsap (1974). Reasoned verse, some prose or rhyme Lose themselves in other times And waiting hopes cast silent spells That speak in clouded clues It cannot be a part of me For now it's part of you #13) Monkees, The: "Tapioca Tundra" (1968) [34] {-} <-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_tGCTkUJ9Y B-side of "Valleri."

Perhaps irreverently, I included songs by her ex (Eddie Fisher), and *his* ex (Connie Stevens) in this quiz. Every night, I'll pound the pillow Feeling weepy as a willow When my room is cold and still, oh How I yearn for your return #18) Starr, Kay: "Good And Lonesome" (1955) [17] {-} <-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HZTXUJ9iaE Kay died on 11/3/16 at 94.

Police is standin' at the door People see 'em dancin' all over the floor #24) Walker, Jr., & The All Stars: "Shoot Your Shot" (1967) [44] {33} <252> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoR22LN4YN0 Ah, when we said goodbye, love Was it just a game, yeah? When I gave you my love Was it all in vain? #25) Washington, Dinah: "Where Are You" (1962) [36] {-} <-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSDqUSPonyc (Niesen, 1937 movie) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-MfTJt5SQU (Niesen, 1937 single) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sURB1lu0GIg (Bailey, 1937) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhi_HTPJjfA (Dinah, 1962) Originally sung by Gertrude Niesen in the 1937 movie "Top of the Town." She and Mildred Bailey also had hit recordings of the song that year. In all 1937 versions, the second line above was "What had we to gain?". ------------ Tie-Breakers ------------ I loved you in the morning Our kisses deep and warm Your hair upon the pillow Like a sleepy golden storm #T1) Cohen, Leonard: "Hey, That's No Way To Say Goodbye" (1967) [-] {-} <-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQk3wyFG6Fg (Leonard Cohen, 1967) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ce8XYyacnGo (Judy Collins, 1967) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVJImYNGqwk (Judy & Leonard live, 1976) Written by this multi-faceted artist, who died 11/7/16 at 82. Judy Collins released it first on her "Wildflowers" LP; his version followed soon thereafter, on his debut LP, "Songs of Leonard Cohen." Roberta Flack also had a noteworthy 1969 version. Any of these artists got full credit. We might as well be apart It hardly matters, we sleep separately And drop a smile passin' in the hall But there's no laughs left, 'cause we laughed 'em all #T2) Simon & Garfunkel: "Overs" (1968) [-] {-} <-> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uIrXfVtXbI Paul Simon was approached in 1967 by director Mike Nichols to write a few songs for his upcoming movie, "The Graduate." After reading the script, Paul came up with two: "Overs" (depicting the Robinsons' loveless marriage), and "Punky's Dilemma" (Benjamin fantasizing while floating in the pool). Nichols rejected both, so S&G demo'd an incomplete & unrelated song Paul was working on, whose placeholder title had been "Mrs. Roosevelt." They pitched it to him as "Mrs. Robinson," to correspond with the character, and Nichols loved it. All three songs appear on S&G's 1968 "Bookends" LP (although the "Mrs. Robinson" on the LP differs from the earlier movie version). _____________________________________________________________________________ The following table ranks the songs from most recognized to least recognized. The first column indicates the average number of points scored on that song (total points divided by number of entrants). For comparison purposes, tie-breakers are scored here on the usual 20-point scale. Avg.
